Kim @ Reposhture submitted her gorgeous buffet.

She  painted the frame of her old, worn out buffet with Behr Polished Pearl in Semi-gloss and gave the drawers a coat of Furniture Restore. Then she cleaned and dry brushed the hardware with silver leaf Rub ‘N Buff and it looks like a whole new piece!  Stunning!

Her guest bedroom went from dark, classic country to a light and airy getaway for guests. She used Valspar’s Drizzling Mist for the upper walls and plain white for the lower walls and chair rail.

TV Console and Tri-Tone Table

June 21, 2012 By 2 Comments

Welcome Paint Lovers…

Debbie @ Paint Therapy submitted her TV console (which they built!)…

PoP Painted Therapy

They were in need of a new TV console and Ana White, of www.ana-white.com created them a plan for a tall, corner console unit. After it was built, she knew she wanted a very particular finish. She painted the whole thing a deep gray as the base. Then she coated it in a wash of very light gray (almost white), making sure to get it in all the nooks and crannies. Next, she dry brushed some of the gray back on to get the layered look. She finished it off with wax to protect it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Martha @ Leone Design submitted her tri-tone table.

She took an old table and transformed it with three paint colors. One color is a custom mix of two ASCP paint colors. She used the raw wood color of the furniture as the third color.

Welcome Paint Lovers…

1st some business… I think my Paint Submission Form was on the fritz the last 2 days (needed an update), so if you submitted a paint project on March 1st or 2nd, please resubmit your project, because I didn’t get it.

Also… Power of Paint is now on facebook!  You can click up there in the header and follow along there as well!

Alright.. onto the good stuff…

Shari @ Turn Style Vogue submitted two great paint projects.  First is this little mid-century modern side table jazzed up to be an industrial, yet cheerful, beauty!

PoP Turn Style vogue orange

This dandelion shade is so cheery!

She also painted these basic wood boxes to transform them into faux vintage keepsake boxes.

She  made them for her kids and the quotes inside have a specific meaning for each of them.

Such a sweet idea!
